You've been just as guilty of stirring up the pot as anyone else. You just have the ability to 'remove' the opposition.
I think it would be great if the battling could be kept down, or at least taken to email after the first 3 blows. But if you start removing personas for editorial reasons, this board will die. Mike is a live one, not a phony alter ego created to antagonize. IMO, if you want to get rid of some of the bad element, drop the anonymous types. Require valid email addresses.
My suggestion to everyone at large - if you've made a point a couple times, you don't need to repeat it further. We never got to a conclusion in those wars of semantics in the past. Just move on.

PS: I have a 55lb Explorer wing for auction on ebay. Last I checked, one and only bid at the starting price of 180.
